Integrated microwave oscillator with microstrip resonator frequency stabilizer

In an integrated microwave oscillator wherein a first terminal of an active device is connected to a first microstrip line grounded by a resistive element having an impedance equal to the characteristic impedance of said first microstrip line, a dielectric resonator being coupled to said first line at a distance from the first terminal, a second terminal of the active device is connected to a second microstrip line grounded by another resistive element having an impedance equal to the characteristic impedance of said second microstrip line, and a third terminal of the active device is connected to an output through an impedance matching microstrip line, filtering networks for the passage of feeding and bias currents being connected to said terminals, the improvement wherein in parallel with the second line there is placed a microstrip resonator with a quality factor considerably lower than the quality factor of said dielectric resonator and with resonance frequency close to that of the dielectric resonator, the microstrip resonator location along the second line being chosen such as to obtain an impedance at the second terminal such that a high degree of positive feedback is obtained with simple synchronism adjustment of the microstrip resonator with a dielectric resonator.
